No: the new DLM package depends on the new Pacemaker package.  I'm
already testing them, there's only some cleanup remaining before they
can be uploaded.  Both will go through NEW though, so it will take some
time.  Then LVM will have to be rebuilt against the new DLM, and you
will be free to kick redhat-cluster out of the archive (I hope nothing
else depends on it).

Actually, it would be possible to temporarily omit Pacemaker support
from DLM, but I'd like to avoid that if possible.
